Bump to Babe

Bump to Babe is a course of three 2-hour antenatal classes to prepare you for the birth of your baby and caring for your newborn. This group is suitable for mums to be and a partner from 25 weeks pregnant, living in Luton*

Bump to Babe is facilitated by midwives, health visitors and children’s centre practitioners. It aims to raise confidence regarding labour and birth, caring for a newborn and the impact of having a newborn. Information is also provided on what is happening in Luton for families both during pregnancy and following the birth. In addition, expecting parents can meet others in a similar situation to themselves.
